Synopsis
Danny's wedding
Grace attends her ex-fiance Danny's wedding with Will as her plus one. At the reception, Will is annoyed that people consistently shut him off after finding out that he's a lawyer so he pretends to be a professional tennis player.
During the rehearsal dinner, Grace roasts Danny for being childish and immature, which makes his bride-to-be Sarah rethink getting married. Grace dissuades her from calling off the wedding by telling the sweetest times she had with Danny when they were still together. For a moment Grace laments how much she still wants Danny for herself but she sees him grab his bride's ass during the wedding.
Bonnie
Jack dyes his son Elliot's hair blonde which angers the child's mother Bonnie. She confronts Jack and tells him she does not want him seeing her son again.
However, Karen decides to play hooky with Elliot and signs him out. They go to Jack who brings him back to Bonnie. As he leaves, Jack tells Bonnie he knows that the reason why she was so mad at Elliot's hair is because she has a problem with gay people. Bonnie disagrees with him and admits that she is, in fact gay as well. She expresses that she has spent 12 years trying to find a way to tell Elliot she's gay and Jack does it "with a handshake". They lay out rules on how to keep Jack in his son's life and share a sweet moment as they realize what they both have in common.
